Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium (peeled, cored, and chopped) apples
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts)
- 1 tablespoon (for greasing the pan) butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch pie pan or baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter and set it aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the chopped apples and nuts to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Toss them until they are evenly coated in the dry mixture.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg lightly. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the egg mixture into the apple and dry ingredient mixture. Use a spoon to gently stir everything together until just combined. The batter will be thick and sticky.
Transfer the batter to the prepared pie pan, spreading it out evenly with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the Ozark Pie to cool slightly in the pan before serving. For best results, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
